Lucky number 7 meme

I’ve been mulling over this one for a while. Five months, actually. I had an extremely difficult time finding seven on a lot of these. Which is why I posted it: it took massive effort on my part.

  1. The Gods Must Be Crazy – fantastic movie! I haven’t seen Dogma yet, but I want to.

    You can give yourself a tattoo? I’m impressed.

    In your “before I die” list, you include gaining your family’s acceptance. I hope that happens for you, but that’s something that your family must do. You cannot do it yourself. You can, however, decide how to define “family.” If I were you, I’d concentrate on the family of choice rather than the family that raised you.

    You did a great job on this meme. I might try it myself.

    1. Dogma is well worth it. Especially if you have any Catholic background.

      Tattooing oneself is a whole new level of masochism. Or so I’ve been told.

      My family now is my Husbear, our children, and those close to us. My adopted family, although I doubt it will happen, are the ones I wish would accept me for me. But I know it’s something I can’t expect or force.

  2. Ah we hve a lot in common– fear of heights and clowns, liking back to the future, etc etc etc. Thank god you didn’t like that abortion remake of Hitchhikers…

    1. The Hitchhikers Guide remake wasn’t horrible… in much the same way that whales don’t fly. However, as someone who has read all of Douglas Adams’ books, it left a lot to be desired.

  3. Love this meme. Interesting that you hate being nekid, but would like to do a porn. Most of us gays have no issue with nudity, but would be too shy to do XXX.

  4. Three Olives Root Beer vodka? That sounds intriguing, gonna have to see if I can find that here, or when I come down for more ink maybe we could get a bottle to sample.

  5. We have a lot in common: Clowns of any kind scare the crap out of me.

    Now, I can help with that porn thing, as If THAT’s a surprise right? (giggle)

  6. For your movie list have you seen Everything Is Illuminated?
    Bizarre, yet thought provoking film…
